Running

Lewa 2016: ran 21.77km this morning in 2:56:33 hours. Year to date: 61 runs, 470 km, 225 days left.

So my training is coming along really well.  Had a good run this morning, and I am so thankful to God for bringing me this far. One of the things that happens once in a while is that I trip and fall.  I have had a few in the past, and usually get up, dust off and continue running. This morning I fell HARD! Flat out. So hard that it took me a few minutes to get back my breath and get up. And then I realized that I couldn’t keep on running, I was in pain! I had punctures on my right knee and palm. So I stopped the clock and walked the rest of the way home.  Fortunately, I was only a few metres from home and had already exceeded my targeted distance for the day, yay!  Now, I am praying (please join me) that this will not deter me from carrying on. This has been a great training season, and I am so looking forward to Lewa. 35 sleeps to go.
